When December comes around, it usually means one thing for moviegoers: it’s MMFF season. The Metro Manila Film Festival is a holiday staple, giving Filipino films the spotlight just in time for Christmas and turning cinema trips into part of the festive tradition.

Now in its 51st edition, the MMFF returns with eight brand-new films taking over local theaters for two weeks starting on Christmas Day, perfect for squeezing in a movie or two between family gatherings and holiday celebrations.

Bar Boys: After School

Produced by 901 Studios

A sequel to the 2017 hit film “Bar Boys,” the movie picks up a decade later, reuniting the four friends as they revisit their shared pasts and confront how ambition has reshaped their lives over the years. Directed by Kip Oebanda, the film stars Carlo Aquino, Rocco Nacino, Enzo Pineda, and Kean Cipriano.

Call Me Mother

Produced by ABS-CBN Film Studios, The Idea First Company, and Viva Communications Inc.

I'mPerfect

This film, directed by Sigrid Andrea Bernardo, is the first Filipino romance movie to center on two people with Down syndrome. Actors Krystel Go and Earl Amaba portray Jiro and Jessica, both living with the disorder, as they navigate their daily lives and romantic feelings for each other.

Love You So Bad

Directed by Mae Cruz Alviar, this romantic movie will bring all the kilig as we follow Savannah, a sassy and confident college senior who finds herself torn between two very different men. LA, a bad boy and chic magnet who fuels her wild side, and the principled Vic, who encourages her to grow. The film stars Gen Z actors Bianca de Vera, Dustin Yu, and Will Ashley, and was inspired by the 1988 hit “Dahil Mahal Na Mahal Kita.”

Produced by Regal Entertainment

This long-running horror anthology is getting a new installment with a new ensemble of cast and a plot that unfolds across three timelines set in 1775, 2025, and 2050. Each period will explore themes of fear, sacrifice, and survival against varying types of evil forces that have haunted us across generations.
